A few tips on Painting with Photoshop impasto oil paint. Note: There are NO layer effects used in this video!
Using Photoshop Impasto Paint brushes
I will be doing a series of tutorials on how to use the GrutBrushes Photoshop Impasto brushes but this short video above shows a few brief tips on using the impastos, focusing on this week’s newsletter freebies the deep textured Stump Trough oil brush and the flat blocking brush ‘Tone Soak’.
To summarise:
- Vary your stylus pressure and use short strokes for a more organic look
- Use a flatter Photoshop brush to block in large areas
- Press softly on your stylus to blend or soften texture
- Push harder when you want more texture
- Use alt/option to pick colours from your painting
Thanks for being a newsletter subscriber. See you next week!
